Chiropractic for Knee Pain at Cornerstone Chiropractic
While whiplash gets a lot more attention, knee pain after an auto accident is common. Many of our patients hit their knee in the impact of the auto accident on the steering wheel, the car door, the dashboard, or another part of the car. As you can imagine, when the bony knee hits these rigid parts of the car, damage to bones, joints, and soft tissue can and does occur.
If you hit your knee in the accident, you may be unable to walk. You may experience high levels of pain or see significant bruising and swelling. We do not recommend that you rest, ice, and wait to see if your pain decreases. It is better for you to come in and have your knee checked out.
We at Cornerstone Chiropractic are more than happy to evaluate your auto accident injuries, including your knee injury. We have the latest in imaging and musculoskeletal adjusting equipment, to heal your injuries using our holistic, drug free techniques.
After our initial evaluation, we will draw up a treatment plan. Our initial treatments will focus on reducing your pain and decreasing inflammation of the knee, so that you feel better. We can realign the ligaments, joints, and bones of the knee to decrease inflammation, promote healing, and maintain knee joint mobility. Once your knee is stable, we can recommend stretches and exercise to restore knee strength and mobility.
